As soon as Zhao Hu put his pistol back, a burst of laughter came from behind him: "Which team is so brave? It turns out that it is our military expert, Commander Xiao Zhao. Xiao Zhao, thanks to your special operations team this time, otherwise this group of Japanese devils will not know how long it will take to fight!"

Zhao Hu looked back and quickly saluted: "Commander-General, Chief of Staff Zuo, I, I just happened to meet him. In fact, I have no credit. Most of the Japanese were eliminated by other comrades who were not afraid of sacrifice."

Zuo Shen smiled and said, "Xiao Zhao, don't be humble. The commander-in-chief of the special forces team knows the combat experience. Why do you want to be the hero behind the scenes?"

"No, no, no," Zhao Hu quickly explained: "We just met when we were passing by, so we fought a war. In fact, this time we escorted a lot of supplies back. I saw that after the war, the troops consumed too much ammunition, so we were going to a station to see if we could make more guns, guns, and ammunition."

"Okay, okay! I am worthy of being a good expert in military industry. This time you can lead a team to a station with peace of mind. As for the commendation, I will send someone to send it!"

Zhao Hu felt a little blushed when he received the praise from the commander-in-chief. In this battle, there were too many comrades who died, and the number of casualties was more than that of the Japanese. Even the number of sacrifices was almost one to one. Although the Gangqi Detachment was wiped out, the shortcomings of our army's local troops were also highlighted. This is the result of blind expansion. I believe that corresponding measures will be implemented later.

However, these have nothing to do with him. When a group of soldiers dragged down the three cannons on the top of the mountain, he found that many parts had been smashed by the Japanese.

It turned out that when the Japanese army reached the last moment of the battle, they even threw away all the grenades. When they were preparing to bomb the cannon before the assault, they found that there was no ammunition and could only use stones to smash it randomly. As a result, except for the aiming accessories, the gun barrel, gun bolt, and wheels were all good. They could be fired as long as they were slightly repaired and pulled out.

The special forces were borrowed by Zuo Shen, saying that a short-term training class was set up to train the squad leader of the newly established troops, etc. It is estimated that they also saw the combat effectiveness of the temporary formation of the troops during this battle. Generally speaking, various small battles actually depend on the command and combat ability of the squad leader. The Japanese have a deep foundation, and all kinds of non-commissioned officers are flooded in the squad squad squad, so their combat effectiveness is arrogant. The troops that our army hastily launched horses are dwarfed as soon as they confront each other.

This is not an exaggeration to how powerful the enemy is, but seeking truth from facts. If you fail to fight, you must summarize your experience. You must not be arrogant when you win and not be discouraged when you lose, so that you can become a real iron-clad battle against the eighth lineup!

The logistics troops dragged cannons and carried batches of damaged guns, and only Gouzi followed behind him. Zhao Hu looked at the bodies of martyrs lying on both sides of the road, and cried silently in his heart. It was these warriors who were not afraid of sacrifice who dared to face the enemy's artillery fire to achieve one victory after another. Unfortunately, the sacrifice was a bit too great this time!

The loss was too much, and everyone was not in much good mood. As a result, when they arrived outside Huangya Cave, Zhao Hu was furious again.

I saw the Bian Officer who had been against him, no, now he has become the Chief of Section Bian of the Huangyadong Security Department. He put his right hand on his waist and said domineeringly: "Have you not learned the confidentiality regulations? What should I do if I just broke in and brought the traitor and spies in? And you, do you want to come in with the radio station?"

When the dog heard this, he suddenly became angry, but he did not dare to confront him randomly, so he could only look at Zhao Hu with grievance.

As a result, before Zhao Hu could speak, he heard Section Chief Bian continue to say, "Oh, isn't this Zhao Hu and Zhao's hero? Unfortunately, this is a confidentiality unit, so it's not someone who wants to enter. What about the letter of introduction?"

"You!" Zhao Hu stared at the angrily eyes, so scared that while Youxue took a few steps back, he yelled loudly while touching the gun holster, "Don't do anything randomly, this is a confidentiality unit!"

Zhao Hu suppressed his anger and said to the dog: "Give it to him!"

Gouzi took out the letter of introduction hatefully, but Bian Youxue said at a glance: "Oh, you are here to repair the gun. This time I went to the wrong place. The gun is located in Xiachiyu Village. Please let Zhao Daying move over!"

Zhao Hu spat at the ground, took the people from the logistics department and left here with broken guns. He turned to Chiyu. On the way, the people from the logistics department said everything, but most of them couldn't stand this villain who was successful.

When they arrived at Xiachiyu Village, they were warmly welcomed. What surprised Zhao Hu was that Qiao Zhinan and the old scholar were also in the welcome team.

As expected, the radio station was handed over. This was a confidentiality rule and it had to be returned when leaving. Zhao Hu was not surprised by this. No matter what, it was written in the confidentiality rule and he had to abide by it.

In the evening, Boss Qiao and the old scholar found a place in the village to greet Zhao Hu. The vegetables were several canned Japanese food brought by Zhao Hu, and a few plates of eggs and vegetables fried by the two. There was no particular concern in the war years.

He was angry and talked about Bian Youxue as he spoke. Boss Qiao said in a muffled voice: "Don't look at him being arrogant now, I feel uncomfortable when I see him. I heard that a Japanese artillery first came, but he volunteered to go for an investigation. As he checked, he said that the artillery wanted to seize the gun and killed it on the spot. After reporting it, it was left alone because there was no evidence."

The old sect also took over the conversation and said, "There is another time when the local militia said that the company commander who ran away was not running away at all, but was preparing to send intelligence. As a result, after being arrested, this guy was shot directly without being tried!"

Zhao Hu was twisted when he heard this. Huangya Cave was remote in geography and if no one was leading the way, the Japanese would not be able to touch this place no matter what. It seemed that there was really an insider!

However, he didn't say anything, but just picked up the wine bowl and said, "No evidence, don't listen to rumors. I heard that several talented people came to the Arsenal Institute, and the next development will be smooth."

Hearing this, Qiao Dashao smiled and said, "Not to say, there are so many experts, such as Cheng Mingsheng, the high-mechanical and electrical equipment giant Liu Guifu, etc., are all powerful people from all over the country. With their joining, the output of our arsenal is increasing day by day. Unfortunately, the sulfuric acid branch was in the process of being destroyed. I wonder when will it be rebuilt?"

Several people were talking and laughing, talking about the work of the arsenal, and the seats soon parted.

On the way to the dormitory, Zhao Hu and Gou Zi said softly: "Gou Zi, I may have to design some weapons in the arsenal in the past. You can go back and find these people and inquire about it quietly."

Then, he whispered a few words to Gouzi. Gouzi nodded repeatedly when he heard it, and finally promised it softly, and then walked apart with Zhao Hu.

The next morning, Director Liu of the fourth branch found Zhao Hu. Both of them mainly focused on making guns and chatted hard as soon as they met. Finally, Director Liu asked Zhao Hu, "Captain Zhao, what do you want to do with so many steel pipes you brought this time?"

Zhao Hu smiled and said, "The grenade launchers we made have developed towards mortars. Let's just make these 60 mm tubes into 60 cannons!"

Director Liu's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "I heard that the Kuomintang is imitating the French Brand Sanli mortar, but there has been no samples. We have no drawings here, so can we imitate it?"

Zhao Hu knew that it was a 60mm mortar that was later called the Three-Year-One Style. However, if the Kuomintang had to develop it, it was estimated that the War of Resistance Against Japan would be almost over, and the Eighth Route Army would not be able to wait for that time.

Zhao Hu thought for a while and said, "I heard that the Trinity style is also hand-made, but their gun stand is made of wood and the base plate is cast iron, which is probably not strong. This time, when we have steel, we all use cast steel. Moreover, our gun barrels are all pressure-resistant thick-walled tubes, and the chamber pressure and life are better than the Trinity style. It's better to make American m2."

"What? American mortars? But do you have drawings?"

Zhao Hu took out a set of hand-drawn pictures from his briefcase and said, "Not mentioning it, really, this is what I drew with Jem last time. I didn't expect that the kid is quite good at this cannon. I looked at it and all the others were drawn very well except for some details. Let's follow it and see if there is anything wrong, and then study and improve it together!"

Lao Liu picked up the drawing and looked at it, and he was immediately happy: "Okay, this cannon is the same as the Trinity, with only nineteen or twenty kilograms, but the range is 1,800 meters, and it is not difficult to build. I will organize the manpower now and strive to be formed as soon as possible!"
